It's wild to me that you're equating having children with doing effort in your life. These people were supporting you in your choices too! They were paying taxes, maybe they were open to babysitting because they had no children of their own, maybe they financially helped parents within their family that were struggling. You're kind of suggesting a two-class society, where childless people are off to fend for themselves with minimal support, regardless of what good they might have done in their lives. It's like sending firefighters only to houses of other (ex-)firefighters, and letting all other houses burn because they 'put in no effort' themselves.
High adoption demand is good for the kids, but not for people relying on kids for their survival at an older age!
